പരിമിതമായ സ്ഥലങ്ങളില്‍ ബസ്സുകള്‍ വളച്ചു യു ടേണ്‍ എടുക്കുവാന്‍  വളരെ ബുദ്ധിമുട്ടാണ്. ബസ് യു ടേണ്‍ എടുത്തു ബുദ്ധിമുട്ടണ്ട; ഇതാ ഒരു പുതിയ സിസ്റ്റം… വീഡിയോ…

U-turn in driving refers to performing a 180° rotation to reverse the direction of travel. It is called a “U-turn” because the maneuver looks like the letter U. In some areas, the maneuver is illegal, while in others, it is treated as a more ordinary turn, merely extended. In still other areas, lanes are occasionally marked “U-turn permitted” or even “U-turn only.”

Occasionally, on a divided highway, special U-turn ramps exist to allow traffic to make a U-turn, though often their use is restricted to emergency and police vehicles only.

Funny system for taking U Turn a bus

U-turns are often prohibited for various reasons. Sometimes a sign indicates the legality of U-turns. However, traffic regulations in many jurisdictions specifically prohibit certain types of U-turns. Laws vary by jurisdiction as to when a U-turn may or may not be legal. Examples of jurisdictions with codified U-turn prohibitions include the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia and the U.S. state of Oregon.In Alberta, U-turns are prohibited in certain circumstances, for example (ref. Alberta Regulation 304/2002, Division 7):

  • At the crest of a hill or on a curve unless the driver can see at least 150 m ahead
  • Anywhere a sign prohibits a U-turn
  • In urban areas between intersections
  • At alleys and driveways
  • At an intersection controlled by a traffic signal (unless signage or signals specifically allow this maneuver)
  • By a school bus on an undivided highway or on a divided highway where the length of the bus is longer than the width of the median between the two carriageways
